Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) Examples

label_schools creates a vector containing a different label for the schools in SFPS. It can create a numeric ("num"), abbreviation ("abbr"), or long form name ("name").

EX: 8, "AMES", "Acequia Madre Elementary"

label_schools(school,
              to = "abbr",
              from = NA,
              current = TRUE)

`school`	an atomic vector of the schools to be relabeled.
`from`	The existing form that `school` is in. You can select from `c("num","abbr","name")` or leave `from = NA` and let label_schools guess which form it's in. If `from == "name"`, `label_schools` will attempt to match `school` to fragments of the long name.
`to`	the form of the output. Choose from `c("num","abbr","name")`.
`current`	if `TRUE`, `label_schools` returns the current name of the school, not the one that was listed. Ex: DVMS –> MMS

label_schools uses the data set convtable included in SvenR. The old codes for El Camino Real are coerced to num = 11 or abbr = "ECCS" from 174 and c("ECRA","AFES").

a vector of the relabeled values of school
